A friend recommended me this book. Is it any good /lit/?
Sounds like "think outside the box!"-style management buzzwords that will do absolutely nothing.
Anything, book or investment or infomercial fitness gadget, that claims it can turn you into a success with no effort is lying to you.
TED/Gladwell -esque bullshit, plus a few fun facts thrown in for good measure. 2/10
Just finished the first two chapter last night. The book said the three hardest words in the English language is ''I dont't know''. Do you agree?

Well what kind of books similar in nature would you recommend?

Don't read self-help books or any author that claims to be the only one who REALLY knows what's going on (i.e. Gladwell). They're a waste of money at best, written only by people who are trying to take advantage of the desperate and the stupid.

yep, Dunning Kruger effect. The older and/or more skilled you get the more you accept and are willing to tell people, I don't know.

Never read it but I can tell you that based on the title alone I would never consider reading it.

what a smart and successful anon
much better than the meme cover and pop-psych genre would suggest. freakonomics was a phenomenon for a reason.
podcast is dope as well.

I get yelled at for saying "I don't know." My family say I'm very annoying because of it.
